It's weird because I was like 10 when I started playing Pokemon and saw Ash and Gary as my peers, once I grew up I really can't see them as "kids" since they aged inside of my head with me if that makes any sense. I've known them for like 20 years so that's about how old they feel to me.

Yeah, it's normal. I especially feel this way about series where I read a lot of fanfic/doujin because you're always bound to come across reimaginings of them at different ages anyway, like it's hard to just see some characters as exactly how they are in canon because I read a fic where they were married for 40 years and died in each others arms and it permanently imbedded itself in my brain.

I related to both characters at different places in my life before and it really made me reflect on myself. I was really unsure if they would get back together by the end, it felt so convincing, but I'm glad things went the way they did, it's a very hopeful story.

you can tell the faggot infighting nonstop in the last thread rushed the op just so they could slip that in there like anyone is going to follow it. the proposition that enjoying bl created by and for women that has shotas in it is scrote behavior is contradictory fakeboi logic.

I'm listing my favorite incest manga in honor of the OP failing the anons who asked for incest last thread. I'm not even super into incest but good BL is good BL.

Ani no Chuukoku by Asada Nemui. Wish this one had been longer and not part of an anthology. This one is just really fun, it's basically the story about the redditor who broke both his arms but instead of a redditor it's a cute delinquent and instead of his mom it's his sexy yakuza big brother.

Not Equal by Ike Reibun. Father son incest is gross and this is the only manga featuring it that I can even get through because this author is so brilliant. It's got a time travel thing going on and it's emotional.

Ai to Makoto by Moriyo. This is one of those ABO manga that take the fated pair thing and make it tragic, which is my favorite type of ABO. The translation I read of this was absolutely terrible but I still enjoyed it.

Kawaii Kara Kimi Ga Warui by Nen Nenko. Very cute. MC thinks his cousin is into his sister and the story builds around that misunderstanding. Love the art in this one. Cousins are barely incest by BL standards but I really like this one.

Aniki no Ichiban Oishii Tokoro by Mizuhara Zakuro. Another one with really cute art. Mostly porn. Plot has something to do with archery which is attractive.

And because I know OP is really gonna love this one, Onii-chan Datte Amaetai Wake de. I like this one because the big brother looks like a little brother. It's mostly porn, though. The author does not let you forget that the boys are brothers.

The "shota" meant for fujos desperately needs a new distinctive term because there are enough actors muddying the waters trying to pass actual toddler porn as semantically the same as a teenager or a twink. To me "shota" is what the disgusting geikomi shit is with actual 6-year olds being abused, not harmless stuff like a petite bottom.

>To me
We don't care, you have the wrong definition in mind. This reminds me of Omocat getting in trouble for one of the sweater she released years ago with a cute guy on it and the caption "shota" because people legit thought it was a word specifically refering to a porn category and not a character archetype.

>because people legit thought it was a word specifically refering to a porn category and not a character archetype.
Because it is? You wouldn’t refer to any young boy as a “shota”, same way you wouldn’t call any young girl a loli?

No. 241502

>>241485
shota isn’t the commonly used word for young boys in japanese, iirc it was coined after a character that kicked off the whole shotacon movement, but can we please let this argument die already? obviously people aren’t gonna agree so just drop it

No. 241507

>>241485
>>241490
Like >>241501 and >>241502 said calling any young girl "loli" would be just as stupid and "shota" doesn't mean "young boy" but refers to the original shotacon target of admiration just like lolita refers to the novel's titular character. The term "shota" is strongly associated with moidshit and I hate how the tag is supposed to host everything from literal toddlercon for pedo scrotes to a babyfaced 16-year old more appealing to fujos. I want to defend women's rights to enjoy nonthreatening young boys, not men living out their pedo fantasies. You constantly see men trying to be slick and conflating ships like KawoShin to the graphic shotacon doujins of a teacher raping his 7-year old student just because they're "both minors" to force fujos to do their bidding. I'm not going to carry this argument on any further because I'm just going to be called a "twitter sjw who needs to take her meds" so I'm just going to end this by saying that male suicide rates aren't high enough.

No. 241508

>>241501
No I personally wouldn't but that doesn't mean I'm wrong. I don't go up to people and call them tsundere for being kind of shy either but it's still a specific archetype in Japanese pop culture.

>>241507
based and true, I hate random bishies who look like teens or men being lumped in with shotas, when I hear shota I think prepubescent not just basic anime pretty boy or bishounen
>>241508
except that there is a difference tsundere would be cringe but calling a young boy irl a shota would be downright concerning, I don’t think any sane japanese person would refer to a young boy this way since the word is entirely associated with the shotacon genre

No. 241515

>>241510
Wasn't there some scandal because of Kyary actually using shota to talk about a boy she knows on twitter and people thought she was a pedo? I'm guessing it's slang more than anything that makes sense in some normal contexts but not in others.

You also wouldn't call irl people terms like tsundere or yandere. It's an arbitrary character category with no hard rules. Back when Free! season 1 was airing, everyone in the english fandom was calling Nagisa and Ai shotas because they were small and cute.

yeah the story definitely gives that vibe, near the end of the main story minho literally pees himself from stress after being forced to watch Doona and her boy-toy have sex. then she finally ends the relationship with him, the he abandons his job and starts gambling and then tries to jump of a bridge but changes his mind and decides to prostitute himself to wookyung instead which begins their side story.

Halfway end in the story i just realized that Minho has a similar relationship with Doona that he has with Wookyung, and by that i mean that Minho lets Doona have sex with him in exchange for her giving him a place to live.

I honestly think Shota Oni is popular in part because of how boring and sexless it is. I think that's part of it's appeal. It's an incredibly safe way for a young fujo to enjoy so called 'shotacon' content. Like you can read this and know that these characters aren't going to do anything that's more than just a little suggestive. Maybe the author will give us something after a timeskip but it's not likely because dragging the story out the way it is now is more profitable.

Part of it's popularity is also owed to it getting it's start as free to read on Pixiv. Free means more accessible and more accessible can mean easier to get very popular.

nonnas who like incest in bl, why do you like it? what kind of dynamics do you like? what are your favorite pairings?

what i like the most about it is how the characters deal with the taboo nature of it, the shame and the guilt, and the fear of destroying their familiar relationship. it's basically the pinacle of forbidden love. even if it's onesided it's interesting to see how the "normal" person reacts.
i avoid anything underage and/or with grooming or yandere/possessive vibes. it creeps me the fuck out and it's way too close to real life imo. i also avoid parent-child for the same reasons, but there is a short story, Father Figure iirc, written by the same team behind the In These Words manga, that was equally parts fucked up and bittersweet in all the best ways; i was crying by the end of it.

i'm not one of those people who is "into incest" as a rule but I have one incest pairing I've been into since forever, and yeah for me it's all about
>the shame and the guilt
as you mentioned. I think it's just an extension of my wanting to emotionally torture my fav characters, if it wasn't the incest it would be something else, it just happens that for these particular two it's the worst thing that could happen to either one of them. I like one-sided the best because it provides more guilt and angst.

i used to avoid incest in BL like a plague because i just couldn't imagine siblings liking each other romantically but i found kaeluc interesting. they aren't biological siblings and not even that sibling like in the first place so i found it very appealing and after a while i realized that hey, incest ships, even the biological ones aren't that bad! i like the idea of them growing up together and hiding their feelings. i'm also super into twincest lately

No. 242482

>>242431
I don't have a big fetish for it in particular (and definitely not into parent/child stuff) but as a general rule, the #1 appeal in any dynamic for me is conflict. Like, I want to feel that the couple getting together is far fetched or difficult, and I want to see the author managing to pull it off and get them together regardless. It makes it seem like their feelings are more intense, the sexual tension is higher, with incest in particular there's inherent proximity that adds to it.

My fav sibling pair is the Elric brothers because it has the aspects mentioned above but also a weird plausibility? Prepare for sperging, I've really thought about this shit
>Al didn't go through a normal puberty and Ed didn't see his body for many years, so it's possible the westermarck effect didn't occur
>Al might not be prepared for sexual maturity once he gets his body back and who better to explain/assist with embarrassing things than his brother
>Ed dedicated so much of his life to getting Al's body back, so once it returns he's particularly fixated on it
>Al hasn't experienced physical touch for so long that he is also fixated on it

But yeah I'm more into fanworks than original BL, so my taste is more about how people intepret character dynamics than how they actually are in canon.

No. 242483

I always wonder if people who like incest in such a romanticized way (i.e. not the ones who root for it just to be edgy and pornbrained) have siblings themselves or are trying to cope with having bad/nonexistent sibling relationships because it often seems to be about the "deep taboo bond that they have that couldn't be replicated". For me it's just too much to be able to suspend my disbelief due to having IRL siblings and the entire thought just being all around weird and awkward. Adopted siblings are fair game (albeit weird if they've been raised together since infancy) but blood related just makes me reflect on my own siblings too much to not find it nasty.

No. 242485

>>242483
I’ve had friends who are into it and have siblings themselves and I always found that weird, I don’t think it’s as strange if it’s coming from an only child for example. I’ve also had friends who are into parent/child stuff which imo is just beyond gross, I can’t get into stuff like that because it makes my skin crawl and I will just think about my parents which is, the last thing one should want on their mind when consuming yaoi.

No. 242486

I can handle incest if it's in BL because I can see two male brothers being horny and violent enough to fuck, but if it's hetero or lesbian I just can't. Maybe because I was molested by a sibling myself and I know that the romanticized incest is just bullshit, plus if there's a woman I can see myself in her. I guess you can consume anything if you're detached enough but still.

Like a lot of other people here say, I like the emotional turmoil it puts the characters through because of the taboo setting. I ONLY like sibling incest though, parental incest creeps me out because it's too closely tied to pedophilia and I can't stand parental figures abusing those beneath them with romance and sex, and cousin incest is a big nothing-burger because it's so "normal" comparatively. Step-siblings are a cop-out and are literally not relevant.
I like both straight and gay sibling incest, but I'd prefer if pregnancy was not involved. Most of all I want to read about people being tormented by their attraction and see the beauty in darkness that comes with it.

No. 242502

>>242431
I like the longing looks. The words never said. The physical touches that border on being too intimate, too loving .The slow realization that maybe, just maybe, the love they have for each other goes a little bit deeper than just familial. The guilt, the shame, and the hatred that overtakes. The reconciliation, in which they throw caution to the wind because, fuck, they're truly and deeply in love, and nothing can ever change that.
>>242483
I get along well with both my siblings, and I enjoy incest quite a lot, whether it be romanticized or not. I was never disgusted by incest in fiction because I never saw myself in it. Where the incestuous characters start, I end. I am merely a bystander watching as they pursue their illicit desire. Same goes for parental incest (which I've noticed a couple of anons are apprehensive of).

No. 242512

It's fiction, it's a fictional fetish like any other and it's completely separate from reality. If squicks you and makes you think about IRL incest then it means it's just not your thing, for others it's completely separate from reality especially when it comes to anime boys.

No. 242525

Same as this nona, I also have an older sibling who I've never been attracted to, but I very much enjoy fictional incest, both between siblings and parental. I never self insert into fiction and I view it merely as entertainment, so I guess that's why "problematic" fetishes never squick me out.

I don't self-insert either but it still makes me too uncomfortable as a thought because I can't help but think about my own siblings. I don't sperg out at people who love it because I have my own problematic favourites that people would shame me for but it definitely affects my view of them because it's one of those taboos that define a person imo. It's one thing to enjoy it as a smutty porn kink but somehow when it crosses over to the star-crossed lovers kind of thing it becomes too disturbing.

No. 242535

Pretty much what you said about navigating it and feeling guilty. I'd also add that I love how incest adds a level of impenetrable love. You can't get in the way of blood. No matter what happens between the two, they're always tied to each other and have imprinted history, memories, connection, etc. My fave type of incest is brothers easily, parentuncle/younger stuff doesn't click as hard.

The guilt stuff hits even harder if the older brother blames himself for essentially encouraging it/not putting his foot down because he loves his little brother too much who doesn't know better yet. His little brother struggles to distinguish different types of love but in the end he unabashedly loves his big brother wholeheartedly while the older one is still mentally struggling.

Do you necessarily relate to the characters you are into? Personally, I need to relate to at least one part of the ship, but it seems like this is different depending on the person. I know another one who is the same and her love for the guys she ships is a mix between relating to certain traits or backgrounds, admiration and of course sexual attraction to the opposite sex. But then again many shippers cannot relate at all but still like it. To me emotions, mental issues or the way characters are treated by others were never generally foreign just because it's manga characters. It depends on the character though, the traits or treatment must of course match.

That makes me wonder about another thing which is why I relate so much with 2D characters in general but rarely even get real people. I think it's because how fiction works. Even a crazy villain can be relatable because fiction directly tells you their thoughts and feelings whereas real people hide, lie or are simply unreadable or too different. And manga are even more extreme than other media since drawings are more expressive than real faces and personalities and characters are written way more straight-forward and are less complicated than real humans. Maybe I am just autistic or something.

Sometimes, I tend to relate quite a bit to characters who are deeply in love and who would do anything for their lover or depressed losers. However I see it as something that's more of a bonus, even if I don't relate to any part of a ship, if I like their dynamic I'm still gonna enjoy it

Incest shipping is emphatically not my thing, but reading the responses to your post has been interesting. Like other anons have said, it's just like any other fetish, where if you're not into it, you're never gonna get why other people are.

Years ago when I was into Homestuck, I had a friend who was super into Stridercest and I just never got the appeal. It was forever ago, but I think her rationale was similar to what anons here are saying, which is that some people experience a reverse-psychology effect, where something becomes more appealing expressly because it's taboo. I'm not very close friends with that person anymore, but in recent years she trooned out and became super woke-puritanical. Every time I see her tut-tutting someone online for being "problematic" I think back to all the smutty Stridercest fanfic she wrote and I laugh to myself.

I guess I could theoretically tolerate step-sibling incest if the story it's in is really well-written, but that's as far as I would go. I guess I'm pretty vanilla by fujoshi standards, because shota and incest squick me the hell out. I'm not new to slash either, I've been part of the community for like fifteen years; I was put off by it long before it was considered "problematic."

Wait, what? Anon, did you not live with him or something? I don't want to shame you too hard here, but I have an older brother as well and that strikes me as really weird. When I was a kid, some of my friends had crushes on my brother and even that weirded me out.

I find that my favorite ships that I latch onto for a long time usually have one or both characters that speak to me on a deeper level because I relate to them. One of my oldest OTPs has a character that I made the theme of my old blog and I used to cosplay him. It wasn't really a self insert thing, I didn't imagine myself as him, it was more like "he just like me fr fr" so I found a lot of comfort in that character and ship. These days though, I tend to seek out more characters that I specifically don't relate to because I've found so many that I comfortably connect with, it's more exciting to see characters that are outrageous or extreme in a way that's still convincing.

Even if he was a dickass at times, he also protected me and cared for me in an age when I was bullied a LOT and struggled socially, so he was in a way my pillar.

God, don't remind me. We will have died of old age before they finally release that movie. But yeah, I love that Kyoani is at least making a sequel for Tsurune, they would have never let the YoI hype die down like this.

It's a shame because anime like YoI, where the fujo pandering and gay hinting is more than just just comedic relief barely exist whereas every second anime has girls touching each others asses or has them telling each other they couldn't live without the respective other.

a lot of fujoshi these days are fujoshi simply because it's convenient not because they seek out m/m, like it's just because a lot m/m ships are fun and interesting and everywhere in the fandom, but you can tell they all have shoujo roots. the same people who were posting about hualian or wangxian all day were sperging out on my TL about zhongli and guizhong or childe and lumine instead of you know, shipping zhongli and childe, the actual fujo pairing! and inb4 one of you says that zhongli and childe is a boring pairing or whatever, it's not my favorite either but if given the choice i'll always prefer it to zhongli x faceless dead woman or childe x mute player self-insert. what i mean to say is that these fujoshi deep down still prefer m/f pairings, so i don't think they're like… real fujoshi. they just happen to like m/m too on the side, does that make sense?

I don't know why anons are seething at you so much, you're absolutely right even if you didn't word your thoughts properly and they probably feel called out. There are a lot of hetshippers who leech off the content fujos create like fanart and artbooks of the choice male characters and think that the two attractive male characters together is a "good aesthetic" but they're not actually invested in them as a romantic couple because gays are gross and just want to use them as a continuation of their self-insert fantasy. They're usually the homophobic yaoi fangirl type that people think all fujos are and who make everyone else uncomfortable by talking about how they want to suck character x's fat dick and carry his babies. They're the ones calling a lesbian fujoshi an oxymoron because they can't comprehend the idea of shipping without self insertion and bragging about how homophobic they are IRL.

The issue isn't multishipping per se (like shipping a male character with both male and a female character) like everyone seems to think but the tonal difference in enthusiasm and attitude that they have. I.e. treating the gay ship similarly how scrotes see lesbian porn and the hetero ship as the "real couple". Disappointed to see that so many people whiteknight hetfagging without an ounce of critical thinking but I guess it's once again people refusing to post in the dead as fuck otome thread and instead lurk this one to, like I said, leech off fujos.

Doesn't change the fact that it's popular and had fujoshi reading it at some point. I still remember when everyone seethed because of Akito not being a guy because it ruined their gay pairings so even if some girls gave up on the manga for this reason they were still invested at some point. And it's iconic enough to get a new anime adaptation in an era when shojo manga only get live action adaptations that suck ass. It should have stayed a funny romcom instead of becoming a melodramatic family bullshit imo but that's off-topic. I don't think I know any woman with actual normal or good taste who like shit like My dress up doll or whatever.

That said even as a lesbian myself I just don't understand the appeal of most yuri, the mainstream content is infantilized "cute hyperfemme girls doing cute/lewd things" school romcom stuff or edgy demon vampire femme girls pinning each other against the wall, overall shit I would imagine teenage wuhluhwuh activists or transbians enjoying.

I don't think people who avoid "problematic" pairings like the plague would actually even try to get into Fruits Basket in the first place, since the pairings are basically made of cousin fuckers or young adult men and teenage girls because Natsuki Takaya is into older men herself. The weeb girls in my high school who liked it were also all over Angel Sanctuary and X1999, and we know the main pairings in these ones aren't the most vanilla either. And they were into BL too so we basically all had the same preferences for het and BL pairings. I think what you're talking about is a far more recent thread.

There is nothing more scroty than saying someone is not a true fan of something if they don't do x thing. By the looks of it, you are the one who needs a hugbox where all the fujos act like you expect them to. Otherwise you go full armchair psychologist.(infighting)

I'm pretty sure what anon was implying was that a lot of questionable and straight out problematic stuff gets a pass in shoujo and otome while BL is held to a much different standard. Oftentimes dubious consent in BL is called "rape porn" while I've seen a lot of shoujoshit in which an asshole male character forces herself on a young girl while she's clearly afraid and it's supposed to be attractive even though women are subjected to so much sexual assault and violence IRL.

I wish I could get into 03 but I just can't get over my personal hangups about the writing choices that have been baked in for like 10 years now kek. It seems like in 03 their relationship definitely gets the spotlight, whereas in the manga & brohood, although it's very character-shaping for both of them, it's somehow slightly less plot-driving.

It happened way earlier this year already, I don't know why people noticed it just now. They're probably in a development hell lacking funding to finish the job because YoI isn't as relevant with the mainstream anymore and it's just the small fandom waiting for something they were promised years ago. What they fail to realize is that the movie could be used to reignite the old show's success and draw new attention to it creating new fans, but instead they're too busy pushing half-hearted bootleg copies of it like Dance Dance Danseur.(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO PASTURE)

See what you're trying to sell as "reasonable dislike of gay moids" often includes homophobia against homosexuality in general or at least a back door for it, that includes lesbians and bisexual women no matter how much dressing you put on it. From my perspective as a lesbian what's being discussed here is the certain breed of hetshippers who want to hetbend m/m ships to be but their self-insert fantasy because they find homosexuality as a concept disgusting, having met the type they love to drop discreet homophobic bombs and push their m/f ships as the "canon" one. It doesn't make you some spineless faghag pickme to feel uncomfortable about it. People already allowed moids in fujo spaces and now they're attempting to co-opt the space for their coomer femboy fantasies and straight handmaidens fully feed into it, I couldn't imagine what would happen if genuine homophobes started making themselves comfortable.(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO PASTURE)

hetbending is dumb, but is it really THAT common? plus literally all shipping is self inserting fantasies to a greater or lesser degree though, no matter how much you try to deny it. and there is also the question of why are so many lesbians into m/m yet no gay men into f/f. no, i'm not going to scream "fakebian" at anyone, but this phenomenon is strange overall. are women just that societally cucked that any sexual content involving women makes some so viscerally uncomfortable because "it hits too close to home"/"men might like it" regardless of the actual content? or in the case of lesbians liking both BL and GL, why is there still the need to get invested into gay men too seeing that gay men are never this invested in lesbians? speaking of hetbending, if most canon female characters are so badly written that you just have to ship m/m for gay content why do i hardly ever see yuribending? many m/m ships have so many ridiculous AUs around them, many of them that keep nothing from the source material and characters but the names, yet yuribending is just too much? is it the same "hits too close to home"/"moids might like it" defeatist attitude again?(what does this have to do with yaoi?)

It's both curious and hilarious how this is literally proving the point in this post >>246813
>They're the ones calling a lesbian fujoshi an oxymoron because they can't comprehend the idea of shipping without self insertion
So congratulations, you proved a point that this kind of person isn't just a fictional strawman but a real rock in the fujoshi shoe. The aversion to self-insertion is pretty common with lesbians and GNC women specifically because they grew up without proper representation of what they are so they learned to enjoy media without treating it as some extension of their personal power fantasies.

>speaking of hetbending, if most canon female characters are so badly written that you just have to ship m/m for gay content why do i hardly ever see yuribending?

It could possibly be because you're blind, "yuribending" exists literally everywhere these days and I don't know if you're just pretending to be obtuse, stuck under a very small rock or straight out ignoring the abundance of popular F/F ships. As for why m/m is so popular with lesbians, first of all because original yuri content is niche one-note garbage with almost no variation and BL is the next best genre entirely produced by women. You barely see women being into m/m created by actual men (and I mean genuinely interested, not just for contrarian woke points) because it doesn't resonate with them, so it's not the genders of the characters that matter but rather who's making the narrative choices. But honestly, trying to explain this to someone who simply Does Not Get It and isn't even receptive to the idea is a waste of time and effort.

I don't want us to become like those yuri fanatics that threaten writers if the female MC talks to a guy at one point or like the dudes that attacked the director of Lycoris Recpil now for not making the main couple canon enough, but the status quo is indeed depressing IMO, because I feel like we are getting LESS BL and fujo pandering these days instead of more.

Hell I remember when fujos were hopeful for the future after Yuri on Ice and Tiger and Bunny became successful. Now we will probably never get that damn movie, TaB II had almost 0 fan service in that regard (and I am don't like the end) and there is not much else in sight, animewise. Sport series that threw hints at the beginning like Ryman's Club forgot and did absolutely nothing with it and the only recent rays of hope I remember are SK8 with its pandering and gay antagonist and Golden Kamuy with its neverending male fanservice and gay jokes.
Maybe the few gay movies too, but they aren't seasonal anime that are made for the general anime fanbase like the many yuri action shows that flood the modern anime scene.

>As Meat Loves Salt by Maria McCann
one of my favorites, very dark and heavy historical fiction (17th cen).
>These Violent Delights by Micah Nemerever
the author is a tif but there's zero genderspecial shit in it. takes place in the 70s and is about a twisted, obsessive relationship between two young guys.
>assorted fiction by Mary Renault
she's written a lot of m/m historical stuff (WWII and Alexander the Great for instance), old so nothing too explicit

I think a lot of authors don't necessarily deserve the hate, since a lot of times it's not up to them, people like YoI's authors expressed how hard is to get gay stuff in the context of mainstream audience, but it's also true that fujo need to find some balls (no pun intended) and actually make themselves heard, not put shit from author clearly just trying to exploit them turn around to pander to moids who love het.

For better or worse, the reasons moids get what they want is because they make themselves heard, authors are afraid to not pander to them.

No idea if you watched it back when it was still being broadcast in 2011 but for the time it had plenty of fujo fanservice, the whole thing is about the MCs relationship and all their coworkers are way less relevant, and the writers said in an interview that you were free to interpret theie relationship however you want. After that a lot more anime made specifically for women had fujobait on purpose and some stuff were actually gay like YoI and Sarazanmai but it feels like that was a very gradual change. Not even sure I can call that a change.

A problem is that a lot of women's media has shifted to live action. You don't see much shoujo anime these days because all the popular trendy manga gets adapted to doramas instead, same with BLs like the one about the 30 yr old virgin and kieta hatsukoi. Some people will argue it's a good thing because it reaches a wider more mainstream audience, but i personally have no interest in seeing real moids and corny bad acting. The anime industry has always been male dominated, but usually you'd expect to see a gradual change, right? Well it's just as stagnant as ever, like japan in general… since feminism is barely a thing there. Of course they won't adapt fujo media when all the people in power who work with anime studios want to promote their isekai LNs!

I'm sorry for the late reply nonny! You're the only person so far that I've been able to talk about this ship with, let alone the 2003 series (most fma fans seem to just foam at the mouth when I bring anything but Brotherhood up). I'm really curious to know which writing decisions you didn't like. There were a lot of really interesting episodes in the '03 series, though I didn't like all of it, and some of the character decisions were meh. For me personally I think it was just the overall tone of the series being a little more serious and honestly just weird af that I liked.

I did enjoy parts of Brotherhood though. I remember really liking Isaac as a character and was sad that he was only in it for one ep kek. The homunculi in both were pretty mediocre to me, though I loved the dwarf in the flask ep. And Roy's freakout with Envy is still one of the coolest eps in brotherhood by far (and I liked that he just got way more screentime to be a badass in general, picrel). My gripes with Brotherhood is that I felt the writing was just really… idk, too melodramatic and drawn out at points. Like I preferred 2003 Envy to Brotherhood Envy because he's less of a cartoon villain. Scar was more narratively interesting to me in 2003 too and my B-side ship was him and Edward. I wasn't too into Roy/Ed (was more into Roy/Hughes) and I also kind of liked shipping Greed with Ling.

I confess I haven't read the manga though, since I heard it was just Brotherhood. So maybe there's more in there that I haven't seen.

No but also yes the further the show goes along. The very first episode parodies otome and fujo series as a way to say "we're not going to be that kind of show" but the bigger the fujo fanbase got, the more fanservicey the episodes get, especially in seasons 2 and 3. There's a scene where Ichimatsu does a full dom/sub roleplay with his brothers. There's also just a ton of sexual humor, in ep 2 or 3 they do a dick guessing contest so it planted the seed for degenerates like me very early on.

kek yes, like the other anon said it's Kuroko, those are the two main characters. The series has a LOT of popular ships, there's a lot of interpersonal character drama and it just gets gayer the more characters you're introduced to. If you like "bitter exes who can't get over each other" type dynamics, you will have a lot of fun. A lot of famous BL mangaka have made doujins for the series too, like Ogeretsu Tanaka.

My personal favorite ship is Kaga/Kuro, the mcs, though even if you don't like their dynamic there's like a hundred others that get a lot of time. I like the comfyness of KagaKuro and how they both grow from their messy past relationships through their own time together. Plus light and shadow dynamics always kill me.

This isn't about a particular series and it happens with f/f too, but I hate it when I am invested in a pairing and the pairing is hinted/baited hard, and there are only two mains, who are both of the same gender and the series builds up their chemistry over the course of fuck knows how many chapters and episodes etc.
And THEN a new character of the opposite enters the stage. And the moment they appear you just know exactly what will happen. Like it doesn't matter that they just appeared out of nowhere, that they have no connection to or chemistry with the current main dudes (or women), but since het rules the world you just know that one (or both) character will fall for them and that the show will be vocal as shit about it to make things clear and you can only sit back and watch in horror how it develops.
Usually it happens and changes within seconds or a few episodes. Or sometimes in the very last chapter, just because. Like some looming shadow in a horror movie and enters the house and you know it will kill one of the mains somehow, but since it's a movie you can't do anything about it.

Well, I guess it's just the classical bait. But I hate how you are never save from this unless you are reading explicitly tagged yuri/BL. As long as a series doesn't end, like actually stops being released, you cannot be sure. Sometimes it might even happen with an already existing character and they pair all every up at the very end to make the mainstream audience happy.

Anyway my point is: I want this to happen the other way around just once and witness the seething.

Yeah this is exactly the reason for why fanfics and fanart ships are almost always gay. Plus if you are into male characters you almost never get any fanservice either, so fans are inclined on drawing art with their favorite dudes that is cute or sexy because canonically we usually just get tits, characters groping female asses and femme fatales or harem waifu.

Speaking of it I noticed that the same people that get a meltdown everytime a series slightly de-sexualises its female characters are the same that attack artists for drawing lewd male characters, even without anything gay in the pic. Instagram in particular seems to be prone to that shit where people up and get upset for drawing a 2D dude in a sexy pose or something, calling it homosexual and telling you you were destroying their childhood with it.

That trope is actually weirdly popular for some reason. I feel like it's been a million times I've read a fic and out of the blue there's some flashback about an exgf or being tempted by a woman after some drama with the guy he's into. Makes me wonder if the people who are into it just want to be reminded that the guy would ~totally~ still fuck their fat ass if he wasn't chasing man ass right now. It never adds anything to the story whatsoever than to remind the reader that the guy's "bi, actually. wink wink.".

It annoys me too and was one of the reasons for why I couldn't get into that Fuuto Tantei anime that recently aired.

Nothing wrong with her but I knew the guy would never be shippable with the other dude unless you ignore half of the canon.
>this keeps happening again and again, it's like they don't understand their core audience

I think the straight-turned-gay trope has great potential and i see why it's appealing to so many fujos (and gay men kek), but it's usually very poorly executed. it's almost always like the narrative forces them to become "gay", which works in pwp/mindless yaoi/rape doujinshi etc but if i read a romance i expect him to genuinely fall in love with a man and in a more believable way, to the point where he has no interest in anyone else

I hate how many modern shows have this trope of a male MC who is gay for the other male MC, who is into a woman that most likely loves him back.
Saikou Bisco had that as well where one of the MCs even confesses his love for the other dude but of course it happens at a moment when that guy cannot hear it and later he impregnates the sister of the gay guy but the series still goes on with its fujo pandering.

It's worse than generic fujobait because they expect me to get into a show for fujo reasons when the gay character is canonically cucked to begin with. No thanks. I rather watch series with no pandering at all and no romance so that I can at least ship the friends or rivals however I want.

I think it depends on how it's done. T&G for example is a show where a character was married to a woman, but it still feels very gay. Something like the Jewel of Richard has the main character crushing on a female (asexual) character for the first half, but then he moves on.
In general, it's a way for easy, drama. If it's two just two gays, what stops them from getting together asap? But it it's gay guy and a bi dude in the closet, then there is potential for drama.

Preach, nonny. I feel like the "buddy cop story about a fuckboy who could be gay for his partner" setting could be its own genre by now because it's been done so many times. It always gets hyped up as the ~so gay~ series of the season but it always ends up disappointing and fades into obscurity because it tried to milk the fujo bucks with really tame pandering but didn't deliver. I actually like the "straight turned gay" trope in BL (but it can be grating and annoying too if not done right) because you know it's going to end up with the main couple being romantically involved, but mainstream series like this end with the couple smiling at each other at most. Fucking Trigger of all studios, the most coomerish one of them all, had the balls to make their male couple kiss, combine to form a heart cloud and basically have the entire soundtrack's lyrics be a love story about them but not one other company can be assed to follow their set example. Everyone saw how well Yuri on Ice did, what's stopping them from pushing the envelope? Homophobic and misogynistic executives is a given but how the fuck doesn't even piles of money persuade them?

Good question, but that would require knowing what's in the mind of 70 years old suits. I genuinely just assume they don't want to be associate with (male) homosexuality, just look how gundam has no problem pandering openly to Yuri fans.

This said, I feel like people here may be doomposting this too much. It's an anime original so who knows. Character being a womanizer may be just a way to show the contrasting personality. Het bait and switch is a thing (Richard, YoI) and often leads to pleasant surprise.

But he's hoping JP fujos find their balls (pun intended) and don't support half assed pandering.

I doubt put DD in this category personally, while not outright gay it did feature a couple of gay sub plots I believe? And there was no romantic plot tumor with any of the girls, heck the female character were actually pretty great if anything and not saddled with unnecessary romance. I do think the main leads weren't very shippable however yes, but I also don't think it was pushing for "Bait and switch". It felt a serviceable buddy cop show that knew that it wanted to be.

GP was definitely baiting I agree. One of the writers even said Laurent (was that his name?) was BI, but nothing came out it. Once it moved past the first arc, the two main guys got paired with women.

Fugou Keiji was boring and straight and everyone liked it because they wanted to fuck the MC (Reasonable but it doesn't make for great TV)

Season 1 was a guilty pleasure of mine, but I never cared to follow up on anything after. I really loved this couple but for some reason it was one of the less popular of the ships. It had some good fujobait but I feel like these days we have a lot better so its not really worth going back to.

If it's not explicitly BL it usually just means that the series is a normal het show but throwing in a gay character that ends up alone and thinks this was enough to sell it to fujos, don't fall for this. It's usually worse than just generic baiting with no results, but actual canon het ships or about the other character lusting non-stop for women to make it clear that he is absolutely NOT gay just because his friend is.

The majority of het-onlys and people that get triggered by gays can tolerate a gay character well as long he/she is just the cucked guy that gets shit while the other character and their interest in the opposite gender (usually m->f) is in the focus. Basically what >>249771 said.

I'm just saying a generic character description isn't enough to determine if a show is gay or not. Like people claiming YoI was going to be straight because MC had a crush on Yuuko

No. 250015

>>250013
Yeah that's for sure. I think people here rather complain about their experiences with this genre so far rather than the show itself.
It's a bummer and I am skeptical, but I will surely give it a few episodes. Though personally, if bi, I prefer the trope with the lost ex or dead wife. TaB and Samurai Flamenco worked perfectly with that. I hope it's not playboying without development because that's a trait that can legit be annoying. In some cases it feels shoved in to clarify that the characters are absolutely not gay even if it's two male mains and serves no other purpose.

in retrospect yoi did have a bunch of hamfisted het shit that you don't even see in the average sports series like yurio having a crush on yuko because mommy issues or whatever, mila having a crush on otabek (and that was after they developed otayuri so it was a shitty move), that italian guy obsessed with his sister who was hitting on the korean guy, jj and his fiancee etc i think people didn't really pay attention to it because of victuuri

the reason why i can see it happening is because in one of the earlier episodes victor asks yuuri if he had any lovers and then he makes a sad expression while thinking about his past. could be just me looking too much into things, but it's already implied that victor had some sort of tragic backstory kek

No. 250050

>>250041
>and then he makes a sad expression while thinking about his past
No you are perfectly right, I totally forgot about that scene and wondered as well back then. Yeah I can 100% see them doing this. Now if I was wearing a tinfoil hat I would even speculate on whether a canon het romance for a gay(ish) series was the point of debate that is one of the causes for the constant delay of it, considering that it was largely the basically/almost canon gay ship that caused the huge uproar and hype for that series. A het romance would risk to destroy that hype and it might very well be the case that they did not expect people to get so infatuated with the main ship when they were still producing the tv series. But that's just silly theories.

I am not sure how to feel that I have a legit reason for not wanting the movie to happen now because you are right. And because most movies that air only ages after the tv series happen to be shit and the type of stuff most fans choose to forget.

"Victor will have an ex gf in the movie"-schizo anon please stop, you need to let this go. You bring this doomer shit up in literally every thread with no other basis than "this is just how I see it" whenever Yuri on Ice is mentioned. Him making a sad expression could just as well be because the breakup with his old lover was traumatizing, or because he died, or because he was abusive, or just whatever else than "because it was a woman and mappa is just making a fool of us all". I legitimately do not understand where you came up with this wild theory of them absolutely giving Victor a girlfriend and much less I don't get why it bears so much repetition when the original series was so undeniably gay and Victor has never shown any signs of being the slightest amount of heterosexual.

I don't get the issue. I don't think they plan to insert a romance with a former gf for the movie but even if I understand both sides. Makes sense being wary of this but I also think that what matters is the status quo which is Victor/Yuuri, even though we will probably never see it on screen again. By now I also doubt that this movie will ever come. I hope it does, but it seems like even the studio itself has forgotten about it.
Maybe I am wrong though. Curious to find out what will be released sooner, the YoI movie or the Pluto anime that I am also eagerly waiting for, for like 7 years by now.

Anon you're nearing /a/ scrote levels of denial saying this. Of course they're not going to say they're lovers outright because that would mean losing sponsors because of the homophobia in Japan. There's a good chance that the movie is stuck in development because they pushed their luck with the original series making it very on the nose with how Victor and Yuuri's relationship was and are refusing to back off about it.

Seriously, what's with the reoccurring anon in this thread always having a weird hateboner for YoI ranting about how bad it is and how Victor will totally have a girlfriend in the movie with nothing to show for this claim?

As for the drarry, I never cared about the students much in terms of romance, but this was the only pair I thought might get interesting.

There's actually a drarry one I was reading ages ago that had snupin going on in the bg amazingly. It made harry have an actual personality, and used his ability to talk to snakes to get pet snakes that do his bidding.

Sarazanmai wasn't fujobait though, it was made explicitly clear that Reo and Mabu are a romantic couple (elaborated even further in the prequel manga) and even Enta had a legitimate crush on Kazuki. Fujobait alludes more to the series teasing two male characters in situations that could be interpreted as romantic but pulls out at the last minute. Not being categorized as outright BL doesn't mean it's not gay, it just means it centers around other themes than a M/M romance.

Sure, but the gay couple wasn't the main one. I wasn't sure which word to use for that one. This also apply to Samumenco anyway, idgaf if the director was backtracking, Masayoshi and Goto were gay for each other and Masayoshi even thought about whether Goto was a virgin or not. Don't get me started with Goto being such a huge schizo he was texting himself about how he's starting to like Masayoshi more than his gf.

Sarazanmai was technically speaking more ballsy (on screen sexual confession, unambiguous, they both live) but it didn't make wave, and side character being gay is generally more accepted than main characters. Samumenco was more ballsy, but also a lot of people back then argued "it was just a joke, it's not actually gay"

Technically speaking out of three main characters one was in love with the other, of course he got friendzoned but at least they kept Reo and Mabu canonically homosexual and didn't kill them off. Ikuhara, the series creator, has always included gay characters in his works and even though he's a complete weirdo and a coomer I still forgive him for putting in gay couples just as much as he does lesbian couples.

Related to Samumenco, I wonder how far it would go if it was released today. I feel like Yuri on Ice was groundbreaking in the sense that they made portraying gay couples outside of BL at least an inch more accepted so maybe they would be more courageous in writing a romance between Masayoshi and Goto. Then again I had hopes for Great Pretender too because it was a Netflix production (i.e. more corresponding to the western audience's tastes) with a canonically bisexual character and they fumbled it completely. But on the other hand Devilman Crybaby did go balls to the wall with gay.

I get what you mean.
The story starts out seemingly shallow, like it's just generic yaoi rape porn. Many BL start out like this and then have the uke fall in love with the abuser and eventually forgive the abuse without much of a fuss.
But in this one you start to notice that Minho unexpectedly behaves more like a SA victim would? Like, the futile attempts to regain some semblance of normality in his life, the need to dissociate, the self-isolation, and then straight out self-destructiveness. It starts getting too real, to the point that now you can't stop seeing Minho like a human with actual pain, and not just an uwu uke with an ouchie.

I feel like the passion for BL is so apparent in NU:C itself. All of the characters are either perfectly played tropes or trope subversions but not in a bad way, in a way that shows the writers' understanding of the genre and probably their own preferences as well. I usually get bored of mobile games quickly but I really like the characters and scenarios so I've kept playing daily since it came out. My only wish is that they would switch up some of the characters' positions a little more. Having a switch MC was the best move (afaik Eiden is actually the most popular character) but I wish some of the other characters would get switch scenes too. They do a good job varying all of the fetishes and positions, but I would fucking kill to see Yakumo or Dante bottom.

I would love a series about comrades, maybe in war or other dire times. Not too dark and edgy it should tackle serious themes but have enough funny moments as well.
This is maybe a guilty please of mine that I will witness, but I wish there was a series like that and that it dealt with a non-romance plot and the romance was limited to a good fremeny chemistry and typical baity fujo fanservice, only to make the MC give his goal up to save the other one from death/suicide/insanity at the very end.

It needs to be well written and have good characters to not come off as cheesy but I think it's possible and maybe not even unthinkable to happen in real life. If you are constantly fighting for your life and witnessing friends and enemies die at some point it would make sense to nope out of this, say that you rather prefer to save that other guy after spending so much time with him than risking more and seeing more corpses. Tell the warlords, the treasure hunters, the dream chasers or whatever the goal was related to to fuck off and go away because you realised that being a content nobody without much money but a person you are close to is better than being rich or famous but dead inside or die before even getting there.

Aw, I think he's plenty cute ingame though. But it really is a shame he doesn't bottom. I appreciate they wanted to play with tropes, he's almost a classic uke in personality (easily embarrassed, innocent, demure, has a secret dark side) so making him a top was interesting, and I like that he keeps his innocence in the H scenes and lets Eiden sort of be a powerbottom. But I personally also love that type of character as a bottom, so it hurts. Still love him though and would still rec this game, it has a lot of other good things in it.

Currently getting off my lazy ass and scanning a 200 page doujin anthology of my OTP out of pure spite that I probably never would have bothered doing otherwise, just because I know the western fandom doesn't like it 'cause age gap (even though they're non-humans with impossible ages but that's nu-fandom for you).

Holy shit I love you. One of the reasons I am drawing a certain guy and gay ship he's part of all time is that the western fandom hated him so much that they started to call fans of him far-righters for no logical reason but them meme'ing a classic villain into being that. So I felt I had to spread positivity or get blocked by those that cannot cope with it. He was one of my few favorites so I would have drawn him regardless, but this gave me an additional motivation.

The best is that you might spread love and actually encounter fans of this ship! Or encourage shy fans to admit their sympathy for them and enjoy drawing them too. It's fiction and chances are high that the haters and anti-shippers defend mass murdering characters somewhere (not that it's bad, it's fictional dudes), so fuck their bias anyway.

I personally only bother uploading to exhentai because MRM is a crapshoot on whether or not mods actually approve what I upload or not. I often like shit with small to nonexistent English fandoms, for example untranslated BL games, and I suspect if they don't know what the source material is they don't approve it even if it's labeled properly in the file name. Possibly because they don't care to have things that won't get them lots of clicks/traffic on their website (would also explain the explosion in furshit since furries are rabid and will click on everything with fur in it). Also apparently they've done trashy things with scanlators' uploads like edited out links on credit pages (makes me suspect the clicks/traffic thing again), and will also cave in and delete doujins/manga if their twittertard commenters cry hard enough about it.

In any case, MRM is shit and I hate that it ended up becoming the "go-to" for BL because retards were too scared/dumb/triggered to use exhentai which has the most uploader-friendly and best tagging system out there.

Mrm definitely doesn't delete credits. They even took out a bad scans when I asked them.Its likely the uploader who did that.


I did notice they are weirdly selective with material, English translated stuff usually always get a pass, but doujins are often ignored if they are not from a popular series.

It's because of shota I guess but as you said there's even worse than that out there.

It has that reputation since the 90s and recently far right politicians wanted 18yo students to be banned from buying manga with their 300€ "pass culture" , some sort of grant, because all these kidd are buying manga and nothing else with it and they're seething hard.

I love this trend of age gap relationships where the younger one is the top, more assertive, charming and chases the older one who is like "no way i'm gonna fall for this young guy/my student".

I am usually not into it exactly but this pic made me interested. So sad it's not translated.

I think all kinds of relationships can work if they are done right. I also have a weak spot for teacher/student shit tbh. I guess it's pretty typical for women or girls to have a crush on a teacher at some point which is why female authors are more likely to draw series like this. It helps that this manga doesn't make the age gap too obvious. It's not a shota and a teacher, but a guy who looks like the same age, so I assume he is 16-17 maybe? And the teacher a young one in his early 20s or something.

I'm currently really interested in Reo and Nagi. I'm at chapter 69 (ayy) and watching Reo throw a bitchfit after Nagi left him was super funny and interesting. I like seeing such a spoiled character get knocked down a peg buy someone as simpleminded as Nagi knowing how much Reo loves him.

I can only speak for the OVA but imo it was so fucking bad. Has just about every negative BL trope and stereotype you can imagine; teary eyed defenseless uke gets raped repeatedly by sociopathic top because ~love~ or something. I'm not even against this type of story (I love Harada and Nitro Chiral) but it was just so poorly done and felt simultaneously gross and boring and the characters had zero chemistry. I don't remember any of the plot because it was slow and uninteresting to me. There is a chance the manga is amazing and somehow pulls everything together, but the OVA was so shitty to me that I don't want to touch it. I also watched it because I liked how Taki looked and ended up disappointed, you're likely better off with just about anything else.

How could anybody even fall for it? I genuinely wonder if it was even women. To me it felt like it was just male anime fans pretending that women were into it.

I can get into het as well but that romance made me drop the show. You couldn't have a single damn Jeanne scene without her blushing and being all insecure and horny for the guy and Dominique or what her name was also mainly just exist to be the waifu of the other dude.
It's especially disappointing since Jeanne was introduced as the scary fighter and tomboy and the only episode that might feel slightly gay if you wear huge googles was the first one. I would genuinely believe that this manga was written by a man if I didn't know any better. Pandora Hearts was much better in every regard.

I knew it's gonna be het from the start but I felt disgusted by the way both mochizuki and the anime director were trying to pander to fujos. If shoujo fans and moids are your target audience, then go for them? Why are fujos treated like braindead hentai coomers? Some people fell for it because western fans sold it as a gay manga lmao and then they were like "well ackshually they're all bisexual and the het is well written", just give me a break

I don't like this either I swear it only happens with fujos with no other groups.

Same as the many new anime like that new "gay" spyxfamily that looks like a fujo show but then you read the bios and they make clear that one of the MC is a playboy.
Or look at shit like Kado, one of the worst, most aggressive anti-gay shows with gay bait I have ever seen. Make the show all about fujo pandering including a confirmed gay dude who is into MC and then force in the magical girl with episode 8/12 or something, pair her up with the MC, turn the bishounen who is probably gay too into a psychotic villain and kill him, undo everything the series achieved before plotwise (like saving humanity from starvation and war because that's evil now) and force the gay nice guy to babysit the kid of the guy that cucked him with the space waifu.

Yeah fuck it, not saying we need canon pairings but the fujo baiting and advertising for openly het shows annoys me.

No I mean another anime this is why I called it gay SxF. Forgot the name but P.A. Works announced an original with two guys who are cops or spies that adopt a little girl so it looks like a show riding on the hype SxF has caused but it's meant to pander fujos instead.
The thing is just that one of two dudes is described to be a woman lover that chases every hot lady in the down and he is also addicted to gambling so my fujo related expectations are low. It will probably be another show where one character is gay but the series makes it clear that he is friendzoned forever because they don't want to lose the mainstream audience either.

I liked what I read of it but the scenes between Vanitas and Jeanne were so obnoxious I was shocked they even existed. Jeanne only exists to be kawaii uguuu after looking like a bad bitch for 5 pages at most and I have no clue how she's supposed to be relevant.

Yeah I was so disappointed by it too. I loved Pandora Hearts but this is just shit and I couldn't care less about the plot. I'm not even someone who exclusively reads bl, after all I read Pandora as well and loved it, but this one is just SO focused on the hetero romances that it has become annoying. Every girl character is there to drool over and blush at the sight of their designated guy, and the guys go from having gay-ish deep moments (Vanitas and Noe dancing, them strolling around Paris solving shit, Noe and the dead brother/best friend) to blushing and having awkward (bordering on embarassing because they really are a lot) hetero moments with characters they have no chemistry with. Jeanne must be some kind of self insert because liteally every character wants to fuck her but she's also supposed to be this shy but scary and powerful being everyone wants to stay away from?? She feels like a mary sue to me.

Oh my fucking god the waste that was that anime. So many episodes spent to build up the MC and this hot alien guy's relationship only to insultingly introduce the asspull waifu who somehow happens to also be an alien and they fuck of course. They could have explored on the complex/toxic obsession of the alien or the things he offered more and find a way to make MC reason with him but nope, put the mary sue waifu there, have him fuck her, they have a fucking daughter and they defeat the "evil" guy that gave them infinite energy and food.

It legit felt like someone was hijacking the show because it's not only the gay part that's fucked, the entire series was building up to be the best anime dealing technological advancement brought by aliens willing to cooperate and help humanity to solve crises in a rational way and the MC's part was to discuss the pro- and cons with the alien.
It was FINALLY an anime that didn't force the stupid "technology = bad, suffering = good because it makes us human" meme that you see in almost every sci-fi anime in some way. The alien dude was also rational and trying to sell his stuff to the humans while being mindful of their fears.

And then suddenly they go all "nope, gayness and technology BAD", switches the genre and turns into one of the worst shitshows I have ever seen and I cannot view it as anything but anti-progress anti-gay propaganda for how blatant and bad it was. And yeah the gay dude was punished for being gay. He wasn't just forced to watch his crush marry and impregnate a magical alien girl (who is also a god) but he had to raise their kid for 16+ years alone to save humanity or some shit.

They had such a small but awesome fanbase who wrote novel-length content of lore surrounding them and they had awesome fics and art and I cannot remember a single bad experience with anybody who shipped them.

not really, most shounen focus on the relationship between male characters not to bait fujos, but to make it more relatable to their young male audience. young boys usually enjoy seeing rivalries and friendships, and i doubt big shounen magazines give that much of a shit about their female readers. for instance i don't think someone like horikoshi is trying to bait fujos, he like many other shounen authors is simply just shit at developing his female characters

Not reading csm but I feel like the baiting got worse, both in the sense of how obvious they try to get fujobucks and how obvious it is that it means nothing. There are so many blatant het series I see in recent times where they shove in some obvious gay teasing even if the male and female character have sex on screen and it annoys me. I cannot imagine that anybody cares and falls for this so what's the point? Do they think fujos are so dumb that they believe some sudden teasing meant that the mal MC might cuck the main girl when half of the series was about that very romance?

I see some Golden Kamuy or Jojo art go up to 30k or something sometimes, single pretty dudes can reach 50k or more if done by an artist with large follower base so I think you can get some good numbers somethings but yeah, I am not following moe and such but wouldn't wonder if it would regularly get higher numbers while being much, much easier to draw. And everything involving coomers doesn't need background or any interesting motifs or poses.

If you just want to be popular the easiest thing is to just draw anime girls and nothing else. Will be easier too so that's why some artists do it.

I am honestly glad that unlike the west where almost every no-name artist wants to become a professional and make money with art Asians and Eastern Europeans I see rarely do this and just draw what they love. I too have so much more fun drawing my boys or my niche ships than anything that would get me ten times the likes so I stick with this.

I was so happy when I read this the first time. I have heard the same coming from creators involved in the Transformer franchise. Most male fans only cared about the toys and or asked about shitty badass crossovers that make no sense but that they wanted to see so that their favorite toylines would do cool pew pew together.
Meanwhile women were interested in the comics and cartoon lore and the characters. A long-time male fan who happened to be into the stories said the same to me.

I am glad they acknowledged that with the IDW comics and the many gay pairings that must have caused a lot of strokes among the male boomer fanbase.

In terms of Tomino Gundam, I had a blast watching Zeta and shitposting on /m/ (4chins) back in the day. This was like a little over 10 years ago. I also loved the characters and world building in Turn A.

For non-Tomino Gundam, I liked 00 the most. Still makes me lol that they got Yun Koga (of Loveless fame) to do the character designs. It got so many doujins back in the day it isn't funny. Still follow one artist who's been into it since it aired and still tweets about it daily.

I am sure that at least five or so would @ me if one of them should ever re-appear again in the franchise I follow and it's great to know that.

I didn't watch any of the recent Gundam series I should catch up again. The only one I tried is the Witch that airs right now but it was the first Gundam in ages that I dropped. Even BL pandering aside I didn't like the characters and it felt like a kindergarden drama to me.

The funny thing about CSM 2 is Fujimoto recently saying he read and recommends the BL Sleeping Dead. Some people already commented about their similarities when CSM 2 began, like the design of the MC and the way she “died” at the beginning of the series. Her friend also reminded me of the scientist from Sleeping Dead, they’re both homely nerds who want to support their friend and murder bullies.

I don’t really see Fujimoto intentionally making fujobait content but I really, really think he found a handful of visuals and story elements in SD that he has tried mixing into his own moid storytelling.

The only reason you don't want to admit it's bara it's because on this site bara is considered bad and you can't enjoy anything the echo chamber tells you it's bad.
I can, so I have no problem admitting I enjoy GK beefy, bara men.

Not them but wasn't bara a fixed term for a very specific type of fat hairy fetish character? I would call Tanigaki bara in that sense (since he also gets fat later so it matches), otherwise maybe Kiroranke but not sure about the rest. Ogata is borderline twinky and in some panels he has the face of a k-pop idol and Sugimoto is just a handsome athletic man.

I have no problem calling it bara btw and usually do so when I talk to friends about it.
But I bet common bara fags would call it fake because they are too pretty. I would say "bara for women" lol but both Araki and Noda are men publishing shounen/seinen manga. Would honestly not complain if there was a proper term for this type of bara or whatever you call it.

No. 255489

Yeah this is my problem. Not me being paranoid of the term. The thing is just that it is a Japanese term, so we have to look at how the Japanese use it.
I don't think it's a problem if it's used among the western female bubble if fans use it to specify their taste (like a saw a lot of Gamagori fangirls calling him bara) but it might confuse people outside of that bubble. Personally I just call them "big beefy" guys or something. Wish we had a specific english term for this that only applies to muscular handsome manga and cartoon characters.

The body art for this story is fucking awful, it looks like it was drawn by someone who has a fetish for transmen or for men with gynecomastia.
First of all the black haired guy literally has FEMALE boobs, and the character hips look a bit weird too.
The light brown hair character's face reminds me of Onision.
The story is cringe as hell with the author trying to force comedy and and derp faces in every slide when its not needed. The characters remind me of wookyung and minho…..but a version if the two of them had down syndrome or autism.

The word bara comes from Barazoku, the name of a gay magazine.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barazoku

It started getting used sort of as a slur, then sort of got reclaimed, then fell into irrelevancy. Nobody in Japan has used this term anymore for anything for a long, long time. When they refer to the geicomi Tagame body type they use gachimuchi. In any case, using any of these terms outside of the context of geicomi is pants on head retarded.

Same here, thanks for the rec these designs look decent.
>>255585
It is. Drawfag here so sorry for the sperging: coloring is hard and good coloring takes a lot of time. When you draw something the first layers of color will always make the pic look worse than without it. It needs a lot of refining, a good eye for color schemes and ideally knowledge about how lighting and shading work and how to use them to lead the eye to make it really good.
Because contrast is VERY important in a pic since tells you where the focus lies, gives you a sense of space and depth and makes the whole composition look good because we like what we can easily recognize since it gives off a sense of harmony.
If you consider pic related pretty for example chances are high that the pretty and clear contrast is the main reason for it. The other reason is the harmony of colors in it.

Most Manhwas suck at all of that and since they are colored they spend less time than mangaka thinking about how do create contrasts, lights and shadows to make the important parts stand out in monochrome panels. So not only do the colors themselves look flat, the panels do as well and the background is as light/dark as the characters in the foreground, merging all of it into a mush or inharmonic chaos, especially if everything is pastel-colored, respectively too colorful without any sense of beauty.

Depends on the type of hater. Some get mad for seeing male character getting sexualised, especially if it's fan shipping of dudes from non-BL series, others are weirded out because it's women sexualising something for once which is degenerated or something.
Others again are fanatical kinner-self-inserters that get a panic attack if you pair their husbando up with another character, especially a man they cannot self-insert into and the religious crazies get mad on principle because it's a sin and so on.

There are also the guys that cannot view a franchise as anything but their pure "childhood" series and act as if you just shot a kid if you lewd up some adult 2D dudes from a cartoon they enjoyed 20 years ago. The level of autism most BL haters display is exceptional.

Same here. I read the manga in the early 00s (was licensed early in my country hell it must have started here around 2002 or something) and was a fan of it together with some friends. But unlike Berserk it doesn't seem like it inspired many to copy the MC for some reason.
It's strange because as you say first of all many BL mangaka probably know that series and secondly BL is already flooded with arrogant and powerful semes so we might as well go a step further and make them hot-headed and magical too. I even think that many of the power gap series would work much better if the series was trashier and the seme dumb, despite of his powers. I am not a fan if it's too serious, makes it feel creepy sometimes-
Besides that I also just need more high fantasy yaoi in general. BL with story aren't rare, so why not put some of them into a magical setting? Especially with the flood of isekai we get I am a bit disappointed that almost all of it is harem or otome so far (I prefer genuine fantasy, but still).

Kek nona Suzuri Ryo isn't a male. On her old (now deleted) DeviantArt account she was listed as a female and she's drawn yumejo stuff before. I guess she's either a fakeboy or she talks like a man to hide her identity. The art's too nice to be from a male.

Game is mid even without JAST's inane translation. 3/4ths of the game are basically filler where there is no plot (and what little plot there is is ridiculously retarded), which makes it worse because the game presents itself as "dark and serious". The real game is chapter 1 and then the true route, which is very good, but sadly weighted down by the previous 40 hours of filler (yes, that is how long it takes to get there). The 3 filler LIs' dynamic with Towa is really that not interesting and the endings are all vanilla (definitely none of the fun crazy bad ends of DMmd. They're probably saving them for a fandisk/DLC which is disappointing). I wouldn't go in with high expectations or you'll be disappointed. And that's even if you play in Japanese without having to read JAST-original shit like eye-pussy.

The game almost makes fun of you for wanting Towa to be a fun slut by giving you a bad end when he fucks other people. Vanilla sex only! It's even worse than Aoba.

And oh boy if you already thought that of Rei and Taku's route get ready for Madarame's route to dive even deeper down this abyss of Quality. He wasn't planned as an original LI when the game was first announced and it shows. His route is unfinished and ridiculously boring. I would just CTRL skip it tbh. Fujieda is where the plot is at.

Yeah, that's Suzuri Ryo. Everyone assumes she's a male because of the boku use but she set herself up as a female in her own old account. She doesn't post her face and has publicy appeared with a big ass mask and layered clothing.
I just find it hard to believe that a male can draw gracefully like that, make interesting female-gaze designs and spam his twitter with AUs (that have far too much effort put into them) of his own characters going on fluffy dates and also making angsty/cute fanart of videogame/show characters. Plus the female characters in the old works aren't sexualized and one's about a plain girl falling in love with this beautiful alien man winged thing. That's just such a woman thing to do… a male would just draw ugly smut over and over with no plot or depth. If it is a male then it's a very odd one.

I feel you. I love all series as long as they have good chemistries tbh regardless of who made them I just want hot guys with good interactions and a story that doesn't bore me.
I wish casual gay relationships weren't so hard to find in manga. This is one thing comics sometimes do better IMO. I don't read Marvel or DC so no idea about them but with less known series sometimes gays just pop up in a sci-fi or space series where you didn't see it coming, while the plot evolves naturally. I need more of this.

Most gay stuff is fully romance or sex focused which is nice when you are in the mood of it but sometimes I desire long-running series that more than mundane gay fluff or non-stop kink porn (not that any of this is bad on principle). I think this is why I desire gay VNs so much. They are usually fully gay too, but have at least a main plot that isn't related to gayness and romance.

It's just literally the truth. Go on mrm's main page and you'll be able to easily spot exactly which manga/comics are drawn by men. It's not my fault they're allergic to appealing styles. Women can draw in a lot more art styles and handle a variety of themes well because they're not constantly thinking with their pussies and even when they are a lot of the time they make the effort to give some sort of depth. Even men like Nagabe who have cute art styles can't help but suspiciously include innocent loli/big monster guy shit in their works.

I just read this story and all i have to say is wow, its dark but slightly impressive with a message behind it??

Dont read if you dont want to see spoilers below.

forgot the character names so ill just call them purple hair and black hair, purple hair lives a nice and stable happy life with friends and a job, while he is looking at the rear view in his car he notices someone inside the car who then kidnaps him and takes him to his place, there the purple hair is subjected to abuse and rape, the purple hair almost dies by not eating food and then the black hair hooks him to a IV, then the purple hair wakes up and he is only wearing a military shirt then the black hair asks him if he remembers him from the military, the purple hair has forgotten everything he did in the military even when the black hair tells him his name. Then we get a short backstory and glimpse on what the black hair talking about and thats when we realize that purple hair was actually the scumbag abuser, during military the purple hair bullied the black hair, raped him, encouraged others gangraping him and hiding it from the supervisor. After that the black hair makes it his goal to try and catch purple trying to escape and kill him. Unfortunately purple hair starts to pretend to act obedient and stays inside the house and never leaves which makes black hair angry since he is waiting every day for him to try to leave so he can kill him. On the final day the black hair get tired of waiting and starts preparing to murder purple hair and starts the preparation. The purple hair was able to escape by untying himself while the black hair was too busy preparing, he then grabs a knife and hides while black hair is looking for him. He overpowers black hair and stabs him to death. The he runs outside covered in blood where he collapses. Then a year passes and purple hair gets his life in order again and still doesn't remember the things he did to black hair or cares, then suddenly black hair shows up in his door again, the purple hair losses his mind because he knows he killed him so why is he still alive and suddenly the purple hair transports back to where he was kidnapped again in ropes and the black hair injecting him with a needle….then he wakes up and he is in the mental hospital and there was a nurse injecting him with a needle while he is screaming and hallucinating, then from the back of the mental hospital he can see black hair watching him (which i think is also a hallucination). The story ends with the black hair dead and the purple hair in the mental hospital.


Sorry if my summary is shit.

I don't think I can look at hualian the same I used to… like the fandom truly ruined this ship for me because I can't even see xie lian as a man anymore! their relationship feels pseudo-het, the amount of feminized xie lian or xie lian turned into an uwu waifu with oppai I've come across, they don't feel BL anymore and it really saddens me cause i really liked the ship at first. I wish xie lian had a manlier design at least cause it seems like hualian attracts homophobic shoujofags, yumejos and "bihets" instead of actual fujoshi. wangxian felt more like a proper m/m couple because wei wuxian FEELS more like an actual man and they aren't plagued by shitty tropes like crossdressing and genderbending

Yumeshits fucking up the tags of fics and fan art is stupid though. He is still a gay man, just an annoying one. Giving him a vagina is way different than making him crossdress.

The porny tit stuff is another trend I witnessed as well. Yaoi artist who draws for a fujo series suddenly drawing the bottom one with tits. Most only hint tits but some literally draw giant megaboobs with nipples, so actual nsfw fanart but.. het? Or something. No idea what it is supposed to be.

>All their art starts looking like typical scrote art too.

Exactly this. I would think it was male hentai coomers if I didn't know they drew pretty m/m or yuri before. To make it worse every woke and (female) genderspecial person I see hypes this shit up as if it was the most progressive thing to do to lust over giant cow tits like some porn addicted otaku and draw hentai with it.
They probably think they are super woke for proving that they are bi or lesbian and horny but honestly not even my male friends talk like this and it weirds me out a bit seeing women lusting over that in discords with hundreds of people, being proud of it and calling it epic if some former yaoi and yuri artist starts drawing the worst type of male type coomer trash all of a sudden.

But I guess as long as you pretend that the woman is "male" it still counts as "yaoi" to them. I hate that words stopped having meanings lol

His whole death matches thing also just feels so confused writing wise to me most of his route is centered around his dad and debt thus far and how Rei is too kind and loving to the people around him to the point where he refuses to ever ask for help and just bottles it all up yet his hobby is beating people up till they’re unconscious? Was it so we’d have a slightly easier time believing he’d top Towa or something?

Idk, I liked Rei's route a lot - okama aside - much more than Taku's and weirdly enough I felt as if they did have chemistry. maybe it's because they hung out and joked around a lot, I liked that Towa bullies him sometime (wish there was more of it), and it feels like Towa being around grounds him more while getting Towa out of his comfort zone. however, it felt extremely mismatched with the story; Madarame seems like the only interesting match for Towa even if he's a bastard and I don't like him.

Are you talking about Lkyt? Manga gamer was pretty fast with room no.9 and it took around 3 months after getting out of beta testing for it to be released, but that game was VERY short. It will probably come out in mid 2023 if it is a longer game, maybe summer?

I hate how headcanon got redefined from "something I believe that isn't explicitly canon, but isn't explicitly denied either" to not having to be constrained by canon at all. I mean it's just fan stuff, people can have fun and all, but they get so defensive over their objectively false headcanons that I can't help but be annoyed by it.

I am playing Slow Damage and maybe I'm just getting old and impatient, but there is so much blood and so little gay sex thus far! I wish I didn't have to do Taku's route (I don't think Rei is an interesting character and he is ugly/okama) because I am more interested in Madarame and most importantly, Fujieda. I am way more interested in the side characters than Taku or Rei. Please tell me it gets better but no spoilers, I am horny and drunk and the dialog for Taku's route is boring. I just want Fujieda because he has glasses and a suit. I'm finishing this game no matter what though.

lbr they're all a bunch of self-centered narcissistic pricks (both the westerners and the japanese girlies). they like gay ships, but they also believe the gay characters would absolutely fall in love with them (and their female avatar) because they're soo special and sexy and who wouldn't fall in love with such a gorgeous girl? kek this is why there's a lot of manga with girl x okama-ish/androgynous LIs lately, they're convinced they can pull off anyone
even if they deny with "no i just like X-chan i don't self-insert" there is still a level of projection

i finished takus route and started reis, and i do think reis is a LOT more interesting so far. i liked takus ending but he's so fucking boring as a character, and i wasn't expecting to enjoy reis route but its been pleasantly surprising ao far.
as far as blood and guts go… yeah honestly i tjink that's just the kind of vn. if you're anything like me though anon I think you'll enjoy the final sex scene in takus route, its very wholesome

its funny actually i went into the game blind and didn't even realise i was on takus route until near the end lol, they have like 0 chemistry its insane

Has anybody recs for yaoi (preferably manga or VNs) with problematic subs? The power gap shouldn't be too huge, basically two dudes with about the same strength but the moral roles are reversed and it's the bottom who is the sarcastic nihilist or slut, criminal or something. I liked Saezuru for similar reasons but thanks to a job I that I hated I haven't read anything yaoi the last years.

>>258108
I witness this too. It doesn't help that most of them self-insert or "kin" either. This is the reason for the trans-washing I think. A woman relates to a male character but wants to be him so she turns him into an Aiden, so a woman. This is why they also feminise them or make characters fat.

These people and classic kinners are also incredibly defensive about every single of their headcanons and they have a billion. Hell, I knew one that copied her own life and family and "headcanoned" it to be 1:1 the story and environment of a canon character and if you disagreed with her about a 40 year old alien dude having an evangelical grandma, a dog and and a house in some US state I forgot the name of then she would attack you and call you out for being toxic.

I am soooo glad to find someone that thinks the same. Taku's route is so awkward. I don't wanna shit talk him but "I-I am attracted to you" was so awkward. He should have just been dadzoned. Am on the final route now and I hope to God the big revelation isn't that he is gay or wants Towa too. Would be tedious.

Calling millions of people self-centered narcissistic pricks over what they like and having perfect confidence in it is more pricklike and narcissistic, because it means you assume your own theory of mind for complete strangers is perfect and also means you think all of them think, "oh, Mr. Gay totally fall for me! I am so perfect!" No? That's a stretch. Lots of insecure girls with horrible family lives made up Mary Sues when they were growing up as coping mechanisms. It's lame, yes, but, no, it'd be kind of silly to say they all had NPD. Duh? So many more examples can be used. Just because someone has a self-indulgent fantasy of who they want to be doesn't make them pricks or whatever, adults included.

See, that's what I mean. I don't like otome nor the, uhh, "kawaii". I find it too…perfect? I don't have otome friends. I never had a Mary Sue character, I found some kind of cute back in the day, some cringe. I used it as an example. But, you made up stuff about me that you are 100% sure is true. I didn't do the same for you. You call millions of girls and women fucked up, then get offended when someone doesn't like it. The lack of basic empathy is palpable.

You know what's incredible about this? It shows my point. I've just been posting about Slow Damage…that is my only posts in this thread, I pretty much just play yaoi visual novels, but…apparently I am some deranged person that keeps on haunting you and responding to your posts because everyone that disagrees with you is the same villain with some sort of mass-brainwashing plan.

I played Hashihime a few years ago and it had a much more involved plot and it didn't feel like it dragged on like Slow Damage is. Maybe I just don't like Taku's route because I've played almost every BL vn that has been translated.

I got to the first sex scene and it's so fucking awkward and weird. This man is 46 years old and is blushing and won't fucking hurry up, it took me out of the mood kek. He isn't a very attractive character and apparently isn't uptight, so it's weird that he acts like that. I wish I could skip past it all but I sunk too many hours in to just give up on the plot.
>>258563
KEK are the crossdressers annoying or funny? I might do Rei's route next instead of going straight to Fujieda if it is worth it. I am not really into Rei's overbearing type of character though. I'm trying not to be a complete hater but it's hard, nitro+chiral gave me high standards over the years.

That's cuz Hashihime's first route is the route that backloads all the plot and plot twists. It's actually pretty much a novel by itself. I don't think I've played anything like that before, it's very fast paced and the the characters back-and-forts are "snappy", for lack of better words. Also the plot is actually good.

Slow Damage for what I played it's just very, very slow. I've seen people describe as "characters talks a TED talk" and I have to… agree? The cast doesn't really seem very interesting to me. And the dialogues are just so boring for me. I had the same issue with DMMD and TnC.

I don't know how to explain, but it's like even the writers aren't interested inthe cast. I heard the last route is actaully very good but I can't get past the boring Taku or Rei's routes.

Idk, I liked Rei's route more than the other ones but there's a lot of parts I completely deleted from my mind, okama included. And I'm biased because I really liked how bratty and teasing Towa is to Rei, who's vulnerable and inexperienced but also dominates Towa. This dynamic in VN is rare!
I also thought it was the most romantic route; they go on outings and have moments of levity. I also found Rei getting beat up hot. Judge me. Still feels like a lot of wasted potential, the route overall does feel vestigial, much like how Taku's did.

Also I tried Hashihime and…I just got through the first story. I read a review saying that the other routes feel tedious. Still not sure whether or push onward. I do like the sadist.

Ayrt, I liked every route in Hashihime, especially Minakami and Hakase. Hanazawa was a bit boring and filler, but the other routes make up for him. Hashihime was extremely well written. Also I had no clue UuultraC was finally translated and on Steam! I will probably try that one too.
Slow Damage is definitely slow. I know it has a darker tone in comparison to Hashihime of the Old Book town, but it feels like Towa is a caricature of a guy that doesn't care about life and everyone is coddling him. How many times do we need to repeat him doing the same actions, like drinking and smoking or pointless idle conversations that lead nowhere? The mini game for interrogations doesn't matter, Taku and Rei don't have any positions besides parenting Towa. Anons mentioned a lack of chemistry and that's pretty apparent, Towa has more chemistry with side characters. I was more interested in the "euphoria" plots than the main love interests and those guys were infinitely more likeable with 1/4th the screen time of Taku/Rei.
I was expecting something more like Lamento or Sweet Pool going into this.

imo, the first route in hashihime has a true-route vibe, and the further one goes down the routes down goes the quality. The second one was pretty nice though (tfw no throuple ending with minakami and kawase, fucking dammit it would work!)

Oh, yep, that's what I mean. It felt so…good and complete? And the idea that it wasn't really the canon considering the nature of the universe gutted me.
